How It Works
Long Positions
Profit when exit price is higher than entry price. Formula: (Exit - Entry) × Position Size
Short Positions
Profit when exit price is lower than entry price. Formula: (Entry - Exit) × Position Size
Example
Buy 100 shares at R150, sell at R160:
Profit = (160 - 150) × 100 = R1,000
